In the special Fashion Week episode, Betty persuades the magazine to use normal-size models; plus, Wilhelmina can't find a surrogate to carry Bradford's baby. But as we all saw last night , the series gave that expected formula a few tweaks and a few extra pounds. But then he had to run the idea past Alexis, the new president of Meade Publications. Instead of actually hiring heavier models, media whores Daniel and Alexis simply held a press conference where they weighed in all their usual runway hangers with a rigged scale. That, and accessorizing.
Betty Suarez America Ferrera is a sweet but dowdy young woman from Queens, who hopes to one day run her own magazine. Despite her lack of experience, and her appalling fashion sense, Betty ends up hired at the high-end fashion magazine MODE, as the personal assistant to the editor-in-chief Daniel Meade Eric Mabius. However, it's quickly revealed that Betty was only hired for her lack of sex appeal , so the infamous womanizer Daniel wouldn't be tempted to sleep with her. Unable to fire Betty, Daniel instead tries to humiliate her so that she'll quit on her own terms, leaving him free to hire a personal assistant of his own choosing. Daniel realizes he's gone too far when a devastated Betty does quit, especially on realizing how hard she worked during her short time with him, and ends up begging for her to return. Betty accepts, and the two form a close working relationship, and eventual friendship. Ugly Betty differs greatly from Yo soy Betty, la fea in that the show doesn't revolve around Betty pining after her boss and ultimately winning his love after much Will They or Won't They? Instead Betty ends up entangled in the office politics involving the entire Meade family , along with facing off against Wilhelmina Slater Vanessa Williams , who intends on taking over MODE magazine, no matter what it takes.
